I graduated from U of H in 1987 with a BSME in Technology. I started to get a second degree in Process & Piping Design at University of Houston - Downtown campus some years later. At the time, Piping Design was not available as an undergraduate program. But, l found myself overwhelmed supporting a family of six and working 40 to 50 hr/wk. Well, time have changed and some colleges offer on-line courses; in lieu of, taking the courses on campus.

SPED is seeking members to write articles for publication at the SPED website. The subject matter can be technical or anecdotal stories from the field or office (obviously they must be related to piping and plant design in some way). Are you interested?
